New York Mayor Threatens To “Take Actions” Against Zuccotti Park Protesters

New York Mayor Mike Bloomberg is concerned about complaints from businesses and residents near Zuccotti Park.

“We are constantly monitoring the situation to preserve public safety and to guarantee the rights of all people in the city,” Bloomberg said, “and no one should think that we won’t take actions that we think are appropriate when we think they are appropriate.”
